Who was taller, Charles or Diana?
Diana was taller than her husband. Charles is 5′ 9 1/2″ tall, while Diana was 5′ 10″. (Other sources state that Charles was 5’10” and that Diana was 5’11”.) Charles looked taller on occasion but that was either because he was standing on a step behind his wife, or because Diana was wearing flat-heeled shoes. As time went on and Diana gained more confidence, she gradually took to wearing shoes with slightly more heels, such as low leather pumps, moving on to court shoes with heels of about 1 1/2″, to the more daring and fashionable high heeled-shoes by Jimmy Choo or Manolo Blahnik.
